Whether it's quiet luxury, the clean girl aesthetic, or just an appreciation for timeless style, a more pared-back, understated look never goes out of fashion. No one nails this better than Chanel, whose latest accessory has become the must-have jewellery for summer.
Chanel's Sold-Out Earrings
Chanel's Coco Crush Single Mini Hoop Earring has already sold out on its website, despite the £1,480 price tag being for just one earring, meaning you would need to spend almost £3,000 for a pair. However, bargain hunters have found a great lookalike from Abbott Lyon: the Quilted Hoop Earrings.
Abbott Lyon's Affordable Alternative
Unlike Chanel's £3,000 pair, Abbott Lyon's earrings cost just £49 for a pair, allowing you to save a substantial amount while still achieving that quiet luxury look. The earrings are plated in 18k gold or made from silver-plated sterling steel, depending on the colourway, and feature a standard post and scroll back for pierced ears.
They embody the elegant look of the Chanel pair with a quilted design that adds subtle texture and interest without becoming a statement piece. The Quilted Hoop Earrings measure 19mm x 5mm, making them perfect for wearing alone or stacking with other earrings for a layered look.
Matching Ring and Reviews
You can also purchase the matching Quilted Ring for £39 for a polished, cohesive look. The earrings currently have one five-star review, which says: "Beautiful earrings a gift for mum at Christmas, very well made and stunning when worn."
Other Quilted Earring Options
Quilted earrings have become a subtle trend recently, with several other brands joining in. At Wolf & Badger, the Quilted Huggie Hoop Earrings are £32 (down from £40) and feature a chunkier silhouette with a close-fitting design. These have a snap fastening that creates the illusion of a full circle when worn.
Meanwhile, at Missoma, a favourite with Kate Middleton, the Lucy Williams Waffle Mini Hoop Earrings are £95 and have a lightweight feel. They are made from 18ct recycled gold plated vermeil on recycled sterling silver, and their smaller design makes them ideal for smaller lobes or for second and third piercings.
